Kudos to my alarm for ringing in the morning. Kudos to OldDoogue for hawking flats shirts like the best of "Rolex" dealers on the streets of NYC (actually, sold me a beautiful north face shirt for $20. For those interested, I think he's got more). Kudos to Irwin(sp?) for a lesson on long term strategic planning and national defense. Kudos to the beeeeaaauuutiful weather. Kudos to the 7000+ Monomoy stripers who outsmarted me all morning. Kudos to OldDoogue (in absentia) for sharing his sandwich genius . Kudos to Juro for coaching me into my first striper on the flats. Kudos to Doogue for removing the knot in my flyline (mid-fight) so as not to lose my first striper on the flats. Kudos to Pete for introducing me to the Urban Assault Vehicle.

And kudos to a young guy whose keen eye fell on the "best" shirt. Went to all the local discount stores and purchased 10 fishing shirts. Bought all they had, small-medium-large, columbia-northface-rockport, long-shortsleeve, and all with venting-large front pockets-and sleeves that button-up. Material is a combination of cotton ect.. Probably not those form fitting tailored SP rated shirts Juro looks so cool in, but at $20 each they seem to be worth it. If anyone is interested they can e-mail me for details.(all have the original sale tags and can be returned) If you have a desire to search them out I found them at Marshalls and TJmax.
By the way Jeff you picked out one of the two I was keeping for myself. And I'm missing a finger and two toes. And yes they were only $19.99 and I will send you the penny. And Mike's friend Irwin( who you had the pleasure of sharing company with yesterday) mentioned you wern't a bad guy to spend the day with......Jim D.
